Description The metaphor which gives the title to this exhibition provides a clue to the position of women;s painting in the 1990s. The title suggests an opening up of multiple differences from and within the tradition of painting. But, what is the unlikeliness to which it refers? just what is incapable of being compared? The exhibition addresses the history of painting in ways which imply the possibility of a different aesthetic, one which shifts the accepted categories that seperate abstraction for representation. pure form from decoration, and the process of making from the finished object.
